These are my First impressions of the
feelfreeMoken10,
It looked very wide and heavy.
35"wide and 29Kg !!!

build quality is every bit as good as the 12.
I was pleased to find out how much lighter the 10 seemed to be
compared to the 12. Held both side handles and lifted the
kayak over my head with ease. This would be easy to put on the roof
bars as the balance is spot on.
Turning the kayak upside down the depth of the 2 V channels in the
hull is the first thing to catch your eye

These help the tracking no
end.

Back the right way up and you can see some of the
changes over the 12. The front storage area is smaller, still has a
net cover. The removal and fitting of the net has been made easier
with pull tabs on the net rope. The front rod holders are set at an
angle away from the kayak so any loose weight/hooks are hanging
over the side not over the kayak
The 2 small net pockets on the inside of the cockpit have been made
bigger. Now plenty big enough for safe storage of your camera/gps
ect.
The hatch is the same size as the 12 and still has the very handy
net bag.

The covered console area is slightly shorter but wider
and the top fits slightly different to reduce water ingress.
The adjustable foot rests have been replaced by moulded foot rests.
These are very comfy to use and seem to give you more room in the
cockpit.

The fitted seat has been removed giving you the option
of fitting a removable seat to suit your needs. ie pockets, rod
holders, padding , high or low back.

Out on the water the kayak performed very nicely. The
tracking was good for a 10 ft.. and it could be turned round using
only 2 strokes.
The biggest suprise was how stable the kayak
was.

You could sit with your feet
over the side with no feeling of being tipped
out.

even in a stiff breeze i could easily stand up in the kayak being
blown into the middle of the canal. Amazing
stability

There is definatly a place for the Moken 10 as a
fishing kayak. Superb for the still waters and well suited for the
not too distant sea fishing marks.
